The final round of Group C of the Asian group stage of the World Preliminary Championship began, and the Chinese men's football team played against the powerful South Korean men's football team away. For the Chinese men's football team, this game can be said to be a back-to-back battle, and only a win or draw with the opponent will have a chance to qualify from the group. Once they lose, they will have to see the result of this match between Thailand and Singapore, and they will pin their hopes of qualifying on others.
Judging from the starting lineup announced before the game, in the face of such a strong opponent as South Korea, Ivankovic no longer insists on using a single-back lineup.
The midfielder defended the midfield position, and the central defender Jiang Shenglong became a new choice, partnering with Wang Shangyuan. In the game, Jiang Shenglong's header advantage is more obvious, the confrontation is good, he can provide more hardness to the Chinese men's football team in the back position, and he is also a barrier in front of the defensive line.
The back line is still Jiang Guangtai and Zhu Chenjie partnering the center back, the left back Liu Yang continues to start, and the right back position, Shanghai Shenhua's newcomer Yang Zexiang gets the opportunity to play. Wang Zhenao, who started in the last game, was unable to play in this game due to injury, and using Yang Zexiang is also a way for Ivankovic! In such an important game, I also hope that Yang Zexiang can play well and withstand the impact of South Korean ace Son Xingmin.
The four players in the front field, the center forward is the young player Bai Helamu who scored in the last game, Xie Wenneng and Fernando from the Shandong Taishan team are on both sides, and the middle is Xu Haoyang of the Shanghai Shenhua team, among these four players, in addition to Fernando, the other three players are selected for the national team for the first time. What kind of offensive cooperation these four offensive players can have is also very exciting.
Wu Lei, the top scorer of the Chinese men's football team, is currently injured and is on standby for this game. If the team can't open the situation in the first half, it is very likely that Wu Lei will come off the bench. In the same situation as him, Zhang Yuning, who also has some injuries and is also Ivankovic's backhand. Naturalized player Ackerson is also in the squad for this game and is also expected to play against South Korea.
Judging from Ivankovic's arrangement, the Chinese men's football team should be defense-oriented in the first half, and hope that several young players can have wonderful performances and genius strokes in the front court. In the second half, Wu Lei, Wei Shihao, Zhang Yuning and other players were the hope of Ivankovic and the Chinese men's football team to win.
Tonight, facing the South Korean men's football team, what kind of performance can the Chinese men's football team have! Let's wait and see! Cheer for the national football team!
